Abstract

This study aims to identify the institutional forms of breeders of paddy rice and identify problems that occur in rice seed breeding groups in North Sumatra. This study uses in-depth interview method with key respondents. Besides, questionnaires and observations were made in the field. The results showed that the form of breeding institutions consist of two independent and non-independent breeders. All breder members only carry out seed production activities on cultivation resistance, while post-harvest activities, certification and marketing are carried out by the head of the farmer group or the partner company. Problems faced by breeders include lack of access to irrigation sources, capital sources, markets, lack of knowledge and skills in post-harvest and certification and high dependence on one party.
